Hi

i have a r33 gtst and just bought a 4294 gt42 precision turbo.

im stilk debating what housing sizes to go with.

i would love 1000hp out of the car but i know its costly and i dont want anything less than 800hp..

i have all the supporting mods to make the power and i want other opinions before i order the housings..

any help would be great

What are you plans for it? Are you just chasing numbers?

The larger the rear housing, the more torque and power, it also makes the top end more responsive at the expense of the low end = lag.

I have already done the following mods

forged bottom end with billet crank

Tomei type L fpr

bosch 023

Z32 afm

1000cc injectors

splitfire coils

fmic

greedy plenum and 92mm throttle body

exhaust

hd clutch with gtr racing flywheel

haltec ecu

other random stuff boost controller turbo timer etc

im yet to do the head and cam woek with studs and the new turbo im buying asap..

i will have the current engine for sale soon it is making 366rwkw at 25 psi.. pm me for details.

thanks for your advice scotty.

i am useing the car as a daily drag and track.. i also want the numbers as im more than half way there with all the parts i have wanting to build a engine..

so basicallyif i went with a larger rear housing i will have some lag at lower rpm..

its my daily aswell so i dont want to be boosting under 3000 to much anyway but i dont want it to be laggy if i put my foot down i want response aswell..

Would you recommend any size housing or put me onto a post that has b3en over this before ?

if any one else has some advide if would be good..

once again thanks for your help scotty

I dont mean to upset your 1000hp dream but your your going to need a f**k load more supporting mode to get even close to your goal. Z32 afm maxes out at 370ish kw. What capacity rb is it? If rb25 it is going to be a laggy dog to drive. Also ridiculous for a car with that turbo to be a daily driver. I hope you have at least 50k min yo bhrn.

its school holidays again isny it? Hahs.

Unless you have a 1000hp car or had you dont know what you on about..

http://www.nzefi.com/packages/power-upgrade/nissan-skyline-r33-rb25det/

That link will give you some detail but go ahead and contact them and you will see you wont need that much money to do it..

With a good mechanic and cheap parts supplier that i have you can do it in half the money..

iv already got a rebuilt box and diff aswell that i havn mentioned so if you just want to press buttons on the keyboard you might aswell get off this forum and keep studying year 10 though out your school holidays..

and maybe some spelling lessons

Mate I think you have no idea.

your looking at at least 7k-10k just to build a cylinder head to make 1000hp at the wheels.

You'll need a built rb30 bottem end grout filled, enlarged oil return holes, rb26 bearings for the big ends for better oiling ect. Plus all the other machine work done to handle that power. 1/2" head studs. And I could go on. Minimum of 10k just in the bottem end. Dry sump external pump and blah blah blah. Atleast 5k in the exhaust manifold custom cooler piping ect. Ect. Then yiur going yo need a ppg dog box built or holinger just to handle that power theres 10k for a ppg or 20k for a holinger.. Stock box will be farked qiuck as. Triple plate clutch. 3k there. Then you need a big brake kit, 5k. Furl setup. 4 bosch o44s and at least 2000cc injectors.there 3-4k. And I can still g po on with all the other things you neec.

So have fun building a 1000hp skyline for 20k haha.

as I said must be school holidays.

if you could read you would know the clutch in the gearbox now is not the one im useing..

i have a complete r33 gtr gearbox and diff setup with a nismo clutch..

If your read before you reply i would have to answer these questions twice..

and im happy you know how to research clutches in google..

This forum is full of cockheads that think they know eveything and still prop sucking on mums titty..

im glad i got some better information i asked for on other forums cause i sure know what forum is better..

Pfft so every single triple plate clutch in the world is 2099 dollars is it? Which brand? And tell me why do you have a gtr box in a gtst? Also a gtr box and gts-t box box have ghe same internals. So a gtr box is no stronger. And at 1000hp a gts-t/gtr box will go bang crack crunch before you know it. Do your research and you would kniw this. You really do have no idea. Ive built and played with quite a few high hp rb's mate and I know whats involved.

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
